Marriage Encounter supports Church’s “For Your Marriage”

"Strong support for the Catholic Church’s “For Your Marriage” initiative was announced today by the National Secretariat of Worldwide Marriage Encounter.

'It is our belief that vibrant, long lasting and dedicated marriages can and do exist and that married couples are seeking to make their good marriages, great marriages. The focus of the United States Catholic Conference of Bishops on supporting and helping to foster good marriage principles is an effort that we all need to get behind and encourage,' said Tony and Cathy Witzak and Fr. Emile Frishe, the WWME National Secretariat Ecclesial Team.

The new USCCB marriage initiative, which has been operating for six months, has many facets with one of the key elements being its www.foryourmarriage.org website. The website contains much useful information and tips, stories and ideas to keep marriages alive and healthy. There has also been a strong emphasis on public service announcements and other related programs."
